i just finished Spring-cleaning my house. n there's loads of un-wanted, un-used clothes! what should i do with all those clothes? throw? donate?
I had an experienced of being a teacher yest! yes! a sec sch teacher!
i had the control of a class of 30 normal acadamics secondary 1 students!
but i was lucky thou~ only 18 of them turned up! ho!ho!ho!
i had butterflies in my stomach when i 1st step in to that sch.
oh, fyi, i was appointed to Whitley Secondary Sch.
yes, i was late for the 1st time! just becoz the cab driver was arguing with me abt the location of that blardy sch!
Me: Uncle, Whitley Secondary.
Cab Driver: Oh! that sch. ok!
Me: it's at toapayoh ok. near bradell mrt.
C. D.: wHAt? it's just here! bishan!
(
Btw, i took the cab from AMK MRT)
C.D.: it's at bishan st. 22. ARE U SURE IT's at TOAPAYOH?
Me: YAh! toapayoh lor. 1. i think.
C.D.: R U SURE? i'm so sure it's at bishan st 22.! let me check the street directory.
(for the next 10mins, still checking. n checking. n checking. while mumbling to himself. "It's at bishan st. 22!".)
Me: wait! let me check out from my fren...
(Dialled Lydia's mobile.)
Me: Hey Lydia, i'm in the cab now, it's at TOAPAYOH LOR 1 RIGHT?. THE CAB DRIVER KEPT ON ARGUING WITH ME THAT It's AT BISHAN!
Lydia: yEs! yes! PLS TAKE OVER THE DRIVER IMA!!
Me: It's at TOAPAYOH LOR 1 UNCLE! hMmmp!
C.D.: oh! i see. yah. maybe it's there. Blaming on the street directory. there's BUILDING, STREET, SHOPPING MALLS, PARKS, But NO UPDATES ON SCHOOLS! they should include Schools too Don't u agree Ms?
Me: yah...
C.D: SO are You a teacher?
Me: hmmm..
C.D: yah. maybe whitley sec sch is at toapayoh.
(reaching toapayoh area and we came across with BEATTY SECONDARY SCH)
C.D: ahh!! you want to go to BARTLEY SECONDARY SCH?
Me: NO!
C.D: (Paiseh) oh sorry. it's BEATTY SCh.
(then continue driving, passed by Bradell MRT)
C.D: ah! this is Bradell MRT. (DO U THINK I'm DUMB U BLARDY CAB DRIVER? JUST HURRY UP! I'm LATE!) there! i see whitley sch uniform! but i have no idea where's the sch!
Me: Ah! maybe it's further front!!!
so, the moral of the story is,cab driver, dont argue with the customers! even if u dont know the way, neither, me, there's definately a way out of it!
My class was cool. a girl from Taiwan, Indonesia, a guy from philiphine. and another small girl who looks ABC.
the thing abt my class is, whenever i gave out the materials, 1stly, we did Chinese Paper Cutting, and followed by Malay Kite, they actually was doing it by themselves! without even waiting for me to show them the steps!
ah. i wasn't under-estimating them! but it's my job to do that! yes, agreeable that the crafts was so fooking easy! but those kids were good! they love me!
after recess time, the taiwan girl, bought me a packet of drink! plus chocs! sweetness!
during the class, everyone was like going.. "Teacher!" or "Ms IMA!"!
it was a helluva good experience for me! and their D&T teacher told me that i was GOOD! my skills in teacher and communicating with the students was GOOD! SUPERB! and he, Mr NG, told me not to waste my talent! woOohOoo~ *BLUSH*
wEEEEeeEEEEEeeee~
So, i have another class next week, but i'm gonna take the Sec 2 students and gonna teacher them Chinese Mask Paiting, and also Making the Malay Wayang Kulit.
Hope it's gonna be fun too! i'm just too excited!
after teaching, ehemm... i went over to the bf's. then we headed down to bukit timah to send my camera for service! yeah, at last! i feel so naked without the camera! that's why there's no updated pic of mine!
